A new implementation of SOL Attention, named SOL-H3, has been developed for Apple Silicon, offering up to a 2.5x speedup in processing compared to vanilla H3. This optimization, integrated into the Vpipe platform and enhanced with SageAttention, maintains the original attention behavior more closely than alternative methods like VDN. The SOL Attention technique uses proxy scores to selectively compute attention blocks, approximating the contribution of others, which results in significant performance gains without introducing noticeable artifacts in image and video generation.
